    Central certainly has the offense to compete with any high school football team this year. Their defense, though very good, gives up a lot of points to good offenses. If Central played one of the other three or so contenders for "National Champion" I feel the result could go either way. 

    I agree. Eventhough AHP won the second half Central's big play ability on offense is unmatched. Their lone touchdown in the second half looked effortless

    Mater Dei doesn't deserve it this year. They lost to SJB. That should pull both them and SJB out of the running. Also, who is to say that Central wouldn't have had a chance against SJB or Mater Dei this year? They were dominant all season long.

    I feel like Central definitely could've beat either team this season.

    This should be enough to propel them to the NC. Mater Dei and SFA lost, IMG lost, SJB won the CIF league with one loss on the season, Bishop Gorman has a loss, and AHP is now out of the running. Last order of business is to see what happens between Bishop Gorman and CMD.

    They'll have it in atleast one poll possibly 2. But there's already 2 that basically crowned SJB after they beat Mater Dei. Those polls also had Mater Dei, Bishop Gorman and I believe another team ahead of Central

    The commentary is hilarious but they show some great games

    TC ain’t in this game, they flunked out……

    Anywho concerning CCC vs Chaminade: I like this Marauders team. Lotta guts & never give up. Nice that they made it to the championship game this year. They usually lose to the Lions in the semi’s. Lions heads above all 1M teams( plus 2m,3M,4M ?etc)…..be surprised if it’s closer than 30 points. 

    Only way it's closer is if they look ahead to the possibility of playin Bishop Gorman next week

    AHP vs Central is going to be the game of the year. AHP with the upset?

    Venice edges Lakeland by a few strings.

    Columbus over Apopka.

     

     

     

    Definitely game of the year but I see Central completing the perfect season in a thriller that comes down to the last 3 possesions

  16. Anyone in 2S stopping Cocoa?

    I definitely give Bradford their props they came ready to play. They won the special teams battle the whole game but Cocoa got things straightened enough to pull out the win 31 - 21.

    There was basically a 21 point swing that made it game.

    Bradford returned the 2nd half kick 95 yards for a touchdown to make it 14-7 Cocoa. Then Cocoa's following possession their punt got blocked and returned then lateral on the block punt return for a touchdown tying it up. Was a better game than I assumed. Cocoa has to clean up the special teams and cut on some penalties still. One hold cost them a touchdown and a pass interference on defense kept a drive alive for Bradford leading to their 3rd touchdown.

    Looks like Cocoa will be playing without their leading receiver tonight due to 2 unsportsmanlike penalties last week. Sounds like the FHSAA is trying to suspend him for the rest of the season but Cocoa is appealing it. They'll be more than fine. But I know he's 3tds from breaking Cocoa's single season receiving td record. The QB is only 88yds from breaking the single season passing yards record which he'll do tonight.

    Bottom line is all this video has been investigated by the FHSAA and you can update the thread topic to read "Game Will be Played at Hawthorne Friday" as it appears they found no evidence to move it.  End of story. 

    Yep being played at Hawthorne and the administration addressed all issues with having fans on the field and put out statement to community.

    Observations from a neutral party:

    1.  Hawthorne appeared to have several fans/former players lined up along the end zone line to the right.   This should not be allowed.   After the game ended, several of those fans walked out onto the field to mockingly wave goodbye to the Pahokee fans (not the Pahokee players).   Poor sportsmanship, in my opinion.  But it ended with that.  At least one sheriff was out on the field and ushered the fans back 'the other way.'

    2.  Right before the last play of the game, the Hawthorne DB was jawing back and forth with players and/or coaches on the Pahokee sideline.   Not appropriate for either side.  Then again, if I had a dollar for every time I've personally seen players or coaches from the sidelines engaged in smack talk with an opposing team's DB or a DB engaged with opposing players or coaches on the sideline, I, and not Elon Musk, could have bought Twitter. 

    3.  Granted the video was being taken by someone on the Pahokee side, but two things jumped out at me:  first, someone had (and used) an artificial noisemaker.  Second, the person taking the video was live-streaming it.  Criticize the rules if you want, but both of those things violate FHSAA rules. 

    4.  Based on the video linked above, we really can't see how the post-game scuffle between players got started.  But, here's my take:  a hotly-contested playoff game just ended.  Players from the winning team ran out onto the field to celebrate.   I've been around the game of football for over half a century now and I've never heard anyone ever say that players from either team (especially the winning team) can't cross midfield.  Realistically, when the final play is over, the players from the winning side storm out onto the field, if they're not already on the field, and run around like Jim Valvano did when NC State won the NCAA basketball championship in 1983, just looking for a teammate or coach to hug.   Players from the losing side typically just stand on their sidelines or drop down on the field in disappointment (like the one Pahokee player did just before the camera shifted from the scoreboard shot to the midfield scuffle shot).  Bottom line, I could not see how the scuffle started.  But, what I did see was two Pahokee players hurl their helmets towards Hawthorne players and one Pahokee player run into a group of people looking like he was trying to land a Bruce Lee flying dropkick. 

    5.  Again, the only view I saw came from the video that was posted, which came from the bleachers behind the Pahokee bench.  So, the Pahokee players blocked some of what may have happened.  That said, I didn't see any punches thrown by players from either team or anything physical other than a little bowing up and perhaps some light pushing (other than the helmet-throwing and kung fu-ing referenced above).  Also, for what it's worth, the scrum broke up pretty quickly as far as on-field scuffles go. 

    6.  Based solely on that one video, and if I were the FHSAA czar looking into this matter, I would not take any disciplinary action against any of the Hawthorne players (but would penalize the two Pahokee players who threw their helmets, just in case they play other sports this year).  I would likely allow the next game to be played at Hawthorne, but would require that Hawthorne bring in extra law enforcement (just in case) and that no fans be allowed on the field -- especially in the end zone area.   The only people on the field should be players, approved coaches and staff (i.e., trainers and administrative personnel), refs, chain crew and media/photographers.   Basically, the way that the FHSAA does it for championship games. 

    Just my perspective. 

    I agree

    There is a visitors entrance and a home entrance.   Most teams come in the visitors entrance and walk down the sideline to their side of the field and warm up.  Pahokee decided to walk onto the field vs down the sideline.  Also, decided to get dressed on the side that Hawthorne was going to warming up on, as their fans called out numbers and yelled profanities.   “Hey 55, you soft!” Hey 7, you pussy!”   And so and so on.  Pahokee is trying to paint a picture that they were victimized.  Far from the truth.  Look at the pictures in the article.  Which players look aggressive???

    What you're saying happened is before the game which is pretty typical at every single game in high school. There's always 3 parts to a story. The 2 opposing and the truth which is usually somewhere closer to the middle. But to say that Pahokee is trying paint a specific narrative feels like a reach. Yes it shows Pahokee players being held back which isn't a shock due to those pictures being took by media that covers Pahokee. 

    It seems like Hawthorne coach is trying to distance his team and staff from what happened. Yes his team and coaches didn't have weapons but who's to say that spectators didn't? 

    There were valid points brought up as far as safety concerns go from coaches and players. Obviously the administration owned up to those flaws. But how would you react in a situation where emotions are high and you fear for your life?

     Pahokee came into the stadium as Hawthorne warmed up and walked through Hawthorne’s warmup, coaches and players. So who was really being disrespectful???? 

    Question, is there a specific/multiple entrance for the opposing team to enter the stadium or is there just one for both?

    Don't ususally follow Central or the higher classifications but, does Lakewood even have a snowball's chance in hell against Central? I'm thinking that if Central was being considered for the #1 team in the nation defeating a team like Lakewood in the final would not seem to enhance their chances. Except for IMG have they defeated any other team that would help them being considered  for #1?  They haven't even played one out of state team as IMG and STA have. Just trying to determine how the selection of the #1 team in the nation is accomplished not saying anything against Central as I support all Florida teams. :unsure:

    The Lakewood game is the Semifinal game. They will more than likely be playing AHP for the title which is a team ranked in the top 15 in most rankings. Central has been ranked all season and has been winning pretty handily. Also they remain undefeated as well.
